[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bring your muffins, bring your wine. Try to stay out of the way in the kitchen unless asked. Don’t make her feel like you’re trying to muscle in and take over. If she says sit back and relax, believe her. If she asks you to peel potatoes, peel potatoes. Clean up after yourself. Don’t criticize. Find small things to compliment. You’ll be invited again and again. [/quote] if you feel like you haven't brought enough, bring flowers, too. As for kitchen help: if she wants the potatoes cut a certain way, do that exactly. It would drive me nuts when family would "help" and by not cutting things right create problems with getting stuff to the table on time.[/quote]
